The National: More Movie Music News

Win Win track features Sharon Van Etten, also music featured in documentary

Late last year, the National's Aaron Dessner talked to Pitchfork about the song that the band had written for Win Win, a new independent drama from The Visitor director Tom McCarthy, starring Paul Giamatti. Now that the film has had its premiere at Sundance, HitFix reports that the song is called "Think You Can Wait", it features Brooklyn singer-songwriter Sharon Van Etten, and it plays over the movie's end credits.

As Aaron Dessner told us in that interview, he's currently producing a record for Van Etten. She'll open for the band on their European tour next month. National frontman Matt Berninger tells HitFix that the band plans to release "Think You Can Wait" near Win Win's March 18 opening date.

Movies aside, the band has plenty to keep them busy in the next few months. On February 1, they'll play "Conversation 16", the next single from their 2010 album High Violet, on the ["Late Show With David Letterman"](http://www.cbs.com/late_night/late_show/ ""Late Show With David Letterman"" ). They've also got a number of shows coming up, including sets at the Lollapalooza Chile, Coachella, Vive Latino, and Primavera Sound Festivals. And on April 24 and 25, they'll play Chicago shows with fellow indie world-conquerors Arcade Fire. Check here for the band's tour dates.
